Music I Like (5th Edition) RanterInShades 2023-01-20 | ~Disclaimer: My sampling of outside media in this video constitutes as Fair Use under section 107 of the US Copyright Law, for the purpose of criticism and commentary, which thus invalidates my usage as copyright infringement.~Welcome to the Music I Like video! Every couple years since 2015, I’ve posted an updated version of this video, so in honor of the 10 year anniversary of my channel’s creation, how’s about we upload the 5th edition? This video chronicles every artist I like a significant amount of music by, and now including the many artists I’ve gotten into since the last edition. Despite this being a complete ripoff of a video MuesProductions used to have on his channel, I hope you guys enjoy this!Is there an artist you would like me to check out based on the names you've seen here? Let me know in the comments, as I love looking into new music. Please note, I would prefer if you would not suggest any country, EDM, crunkcore or black/brutal death/slam/grindcore metal (specified to the best of my abilities to avoid any "hypocrite" cards for my use of the term "extreme metal"). I can't stress this enough, but base any suggestions you give me off of the names you see in this video. Also, before you make any suggestions, be sure to go back to where the artist would be alphabetically in the video to make sure I don’t already have them listed- a lot of people seemed to make that mistake in the past.Hopefully there's also that chance I gave you some ideas for artists to check out if you're into the genre they play. That's something I take much pride in doing.ALSO, I'm not gonna be answering any comments claiming I've "misclassified” or “mislabelled” a band. So if you leave any comments saying “(band) isn't (genre), it's (genre)!" I will likely ignore it. However, if there's a really serious typo (i.e. "progressive metal" when it should say "progressive rock"), please let me know! I made a point to pay close attention for typos, hopefully there wasn't anything I missed.[Songs used]“Red Sky At Morning” by Valence“Defiant Optimism” by Wess Meets West►My facebook: facebook.com/RanterInShadesOfficial►The DiscordInShades: discord.gg/AKXCZhxqby

Excuse Me?? #shorts RanterInShades 2022-01-14 | And people wonder why I have no desire to be on Twitter.I apparently don’t like women, guys! I’d love to know where this person gets this idea, I bet there’s no grasping at straws going on at all no siree. I found these from using the term search function, and I recognized this guy’s name from Diamond Axe Studios’ big cameo-fests. Figured I’d try making this a #shorts thing, not sure what the likelihood is of me doing this again.FYI in case anyone brings this up, the reason I didn’t censor any names is because anyone could easily use the term search function on Twitter like I did to find these posts, and while I understand why people do it, this factor renders censoring the names pointless. My intent with this is not to send people to attack this guy or start drama with him, but rather to point out how clueless people look when they make a bold claim about someone with no examples or evidence. As well as to make an example of how shit-talking someone can come back to bite you in the ass. I may not be on Twitter, but don’t think that means I don’t have my ways of finding things like this.►My facebook: facebook.com/RanterInShadesOfficial►The DiscordInShades: discord.gg/AKXCZhxqby

Along with discussing the purpose of art and why we enjoy it, we also talk about storytelling, how comedy works, seeing value in a work that contrasts what the artist thinks about it, and what propaganda is.[Articles]“Iced Earth Guitarist Jon Schaffer Photographed Storming the US Capitol Building During Pro-Trump Riot": bit.ly/3lZmYJ0Archive of Fantano hitpiece: https://archive.fo/pH4gr"Disney Sever Ties With YouTube Star PewDiePie After Anti-Semitic Posts": on.wsj.com/2XFo6bjAppeal to Novelty: bit.ly/3AY9Wj4“Is Disney’s Pocahontas Historically Accurate?

I basically point out the faults of both sides of the issue and how they’re both guilty of exhibiting bitterness, along with giving my overall thoughts on MGK and the role he’s playing in rock.[Articles]“Machine Gun Kelly Slams Slipknot From The Stage At Riot Fest”: metalinjection.net/news/machine-gun-kelly-slams-slipknot-from-the-stage-at-riot-fest?fbclid=IwAR39eJOfQNO5vDF2CDMrnCFurexym4qbFsedwk9_3xEE10XDgderEbfV-Yw“25 Nastiest Rock Feuds”: loudwire.com/the-nastiest-rock-feuds“Dave Mustaine on Metallica’s Induction”: futurerocklegends.com/blog_files/Dave_Mustaine_on_Metallicas_Induction.htmlCorey Taylor Fires Back at Machine Gun Kelly, Says He’s ‘Like a Child’”: loudwire.com/corey-taylor-fires-back-machine-gun-kelly-hes-like-a-child[Other sources]Concerts I’ve Been To: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15eWT6rRyjviyRhOhyiB2cyc3O1MFMKwuuIdqh-vSpv8/edit#gid=0Ad hominem: yourlogicalfallacyis.com/ad-hominem“Rap Devil” lyrics: genius.com/Machine-gun-kelly-rap-devil-lyrics“Not Alike” lyrics: genius.com/Eminem-not-alike-lyrics[Videos referenced]“What’s Wrong With - Slipknot”: youtube.com/watch?v=Q2O6DNP4IKg“I’m Shades, and I Love Pop Punk!”: youtube.com/watch?v=hmaWlwd-dGsARTV’s Worst Albums of 2020: youtube.com/watch?v=32llloq0PmsCrash Thompson’s Worst Albums of 2020: youtube.com/watch?v=fTH4tvhErk4“Why I HATE the ‘Rock is Dead’ Argument”: youtube.com/watch?v=ocd2HQdHbUE“What’s Wrong With - Green Day”: youtube.com/watch?v=YewaF7N650M“Metal Elitists: Common Misconceptions”: youtube.com/watch?v=J4OJ_ONL7gs[Clips sampled]Clip #1 from Spongebob: bit.ly/3CASGBO“Machine Gunn Eddie” by Nitro: youtube.com/watch?v=iT9TB9at0AEClip #1 from South Park: youtube.com/watch?v=W_L3XI8T7VwClip #2 from Spongebob: youtube.com/watch?v=l2mIiibs38s“The Artists Running the Emo Revival” by Finn McKenty: youtube.com/watch?v=pk9nuKIML_UCorey Taylor interview: youtube.com/watch?v=4Q7hSAwXj7QClip from Hercules: youtube.com/watch?v=uHjVbtW8_5M“What’s My Age Again?” by Blink-182: youtube.com/watch?v=K7l5ZeVVoCAClip from Alice in Wonderland: youtube.com/watch?v=jHG2bMe9YxYClip #1 from Family Guy: youtube.com/watch?v=Wd2gtMETSZkClip #3 from Spongebob: youtube.com/watch?v=tj3ZgfkFMEYClip #2 from South Park: youtube.com/watch?v=GCSiSBZsi8QRobotnik Says No: youtube.com/watch?v=O-ycQlfOqyYClip #3 from South Park: youtube.com/watch?v=l0GoSn6LfIsMGK’s “Shoes rant”: bit.ly/3u3hZsV“Duality” by Slipknot: youtube.com/watch?v=6fVE8kSM43IClip from Hey Arnold: bit.ly/3EKeMn5Clip from Ratatouille: youtube.com/watch?v=ctfycq2HfIU“Rap Devil” by Machine Gun Kelly: youtube.com/watch?v=Fp0BScQSSvgClip #2 from Family Guy: youtube.com/watch?v=0TBlyr7gUBcClip #4 from Spongebob: youtube.com/watch?v=qhY66zoM4oMClip from That 70’s Show: youtube.com/watch?v=QG8sq6aCbYsLeafy Content Cop (reupload): youtube.com/watch?v=e08xNRqr2HUIce-T’s video towards Soulja Boy: youtube.com/watch?v=qTj4-Q6NAzoSoulja Boy’s response to Ice-T: youtube.com/watch?v=OYsytJvYJzwClip #4 from South Park: youtube.com/watch?v=9a_3wQHcm_YClip from Fairly Odd Parents: bit.ly/3EO3jDb“Talk Dirty to Me” by Poison: youtube.com/watch?v=xCChxBSRo1Y“Wake Up Dead” by Megadeth: youtube.com/watch?v=4kSvN1dQjxcBig 4 show clip: youtube.com/watch?v=__j5Z_WcVgEIce-T interview: youtube.com/watch?v=QdwYyO866zEClip from Wayne’s World: youtube.com/watch?v=KtMbhJSvm84Clip from The Simpsons: youtube.com/watch?v=kSGEzpkgsu0#Slipknot #MachineGunKelly #MGK►My facebook: facebook.com/RanterInShadesOfficial►The DiscordInShades: discord.gg/AKXCZhxqby

Word Analysis: The Misconceptions of Cancel Culture RanterInShades 2021-04-30 | ~Disclaimer: My sampling of outside media in this video constitutes as Fair Use under section 107 of the US Copyright Law, for the purpose of criticism and commentary, which thus invalidates my usage as copyright infringement.~Please don't let the thumbnail worry you!! I'm fine. This video wasn't inspired by anything other than the subject simply bouncing in my mind until I felt compelled to start a script.In this Word Analysis, we cover “cancel culture”, how it’s used, how it gets misused or misinterpreted, how it can be used as a tool for gatekeeping, the concept of consequences, the nature of apologies, and everything in between. With how complex of an issue this is, I tried to be super thorough in covering all the bases and explaining my perspective. Hope I did a decent enough job. #CancelCancelCultureThis is also the last ever video made in my old house, so with my greenscreen being packed up, I also tried to take a bit of an experimental approach to editing. It’s sort of a mix of my pre-2018 and post-2019 editing styles. Hope you guys like it! It’s probably something I’ll do in future videos as a means of making the fast pans and pan zooms pop more.[Articles]“Morgan Wallen Hurls N-Word After Rowdy Night Out": bit.ly/3sMlRfPCount Dankula's Socialblade: bit.ly/3vgCamJ“YouTube comedian Count Dankula convicted over ‘grossly offensive’ Nazi salute dog video": https://yhoo.it/3vbASt8“He ‘Horrifically Abused Me for Years’: Evan Rachel Wood and Other Women Make Allegations of Abuse Against Marilyn Manson": bit.ly/3xlAhqJ“Hear Aaron Lewis Sing 5 Minute of Conservative Subtext in ‘Am I the Only One'": bit.ly/3erN3eG“As I Lay Dying Singer Tim Lambesis Arrested in Murder-for-Hire Plot": abcn.ws/2S1mndaTim Lambesis's Instagram post: bit.ly/3sIpXWl“Brent Walsh (I The Mighty) subject to allegations; band on hiatus!": bit.ly/2RRPrDKBrent Walsh's statement: bit.ly/3dKRUZi“Moose Blood Remove Drummer Following Sexual Harassment Allegations": bit.ly/32IWelp“Movements Drop From Tour With Moose Blood, Hundredth Added As Support": bit.ly/3tOGE3G“Game Grumps’ Dan Avidan responds to grooming allegations”: bit.ly/3xnsNDu[Videos referenced]“Should a Musician’s Personality/Views Affect Your Opinion on Their Music?": bit.ly/32LMpmF“What’s Wrong With - Red Hot Chili Peppers": bit.ly/3eu2jHL“Crybabies of Rock: Satchel’s ‘Pussy Melter’ Gets ‘Melted’ Over its Name": bit.ly/3vfW4OO"What's Wrong With - Rage Against the Machine": bit.ly/3vyUQ1j“Canceling ‘Cancel Culture’ | Not A Podcast #12” by ARTV: bit.ly/3vmtZW9“Has Cancel Culture Gotten Worse Over The Years?” by Damian Skyfire: bit.ly/3ryqFrU“Morgan Wallen Conquers Cancel Culture” by ADoseofBuckley: bit.ly/2QV3hoB“Crybabies of Rock: I’m Not Your Buddy, Nielsen!": bit.ly/3tPPttV“Crybabies of Rock: Trapt In Your Headstrong Ways": bit.ly/3gxk9MQ“MustDestroyAll EXPOSED (Silence is Broken)": bit.ly/3sMmkP7[Clips sampled]Clip from Jimmy Neutron: bit.ly/3aBcrxqClip from the Jimmy Timmy Power Hour: bit.ly/2QUMgKYClip #1 from Spongebob: bit.ly/3xnL9EDClip from Dee Snider’s PMRC hearing: bit.ly/3gzAdO4ADoseofBuckley background music: bit.ly/3erxIKXClip #1 from Hey Arnold: bit.ly/32Gpf14Clip #2 from Spongebob: bit.ly/3ve1lpYClip from Fairly Odd Parents: bit.ly/3ewkgFGClip from South Park: bit.ly/3eu2vqtClip from Looney Tunes: bit.ly/2RW6ggR“You’re Only Human” by Billy Joel: bit.ly/3eqVCpXSammyClassicSonicfFan clip: bit.ly/3azh8HYClip from A Bug’s Life: bit.ly/3aBgsSFClip #1 from the Simpsons: bit.ly/3gBn6vWClip from BoJack Horseman: bit.ly/3azl1wsClip from Megamind: bit.ly/2IDFHJcMario Says No: bit.ly/32KGyhuClip #3 from Spongebob: bit.ly/2PjgDulClip from Rugrats: bit.ly/3aAwUCxClip #4 from Spongebob: bit.ly/3aA1tZ9Clip #1 from Family Guy: bit.ly/3gB9UqIClip from Hercules: bit.ly/3tPRHtdClip from Toy Story: bit.ly/3azhrT8Clip # 5 from Spongebob: bit.ly/3nfmdKPStar Wars fan crying: bit.ly/3tO2fchClip from the Sopranos: bit.ly/3ngrSjH“Rape Hysteria - Part 1 | History Repeats Itself” by NateTalksToYou: bit.ly/3ve1sloAmber Heard & Johnny Depp audio: bit.ly/3gIYEsl“Seventeen” by Winger: bit.ly/3dSdonb“22 Acadia Avenue” by Iron Maiden: bit.ly/2Pjm6RIClip #2 from Family Guy: bit.ly/2QRWrjJClip from The Incredibles: bit.ly/3vtEaIzClip #2 from Hey Arnold: bit.ly/3vhyIbyClip #2 from The Simpsons: bit.ly/3sMQqSG►My facebook: facebook.com/RanterInShadesOfficial►The DiscordInShades: discord.gg/AKXCZhxqby

Some of these names will surprise you…This isn’t exactly one of those countdowns where I’m going into super crisp musical detail since I’m mostly talking about the impressions made on me at the respective shows, but I hope you get a kick out of this regardless.List of concerts I’ve been to: bit.ly/2K41IBnShades’ Shirt Collection playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmsqSIz7VuJwOWwHKgXOYJPP1hAkqa8y2Rigamarole: youtube.com/c/rigamaroleTransition clip- “First Impression” by Duran Duran: youtube.com/watch?v=JXoOEbrLEMo[Clips sampled]“Billie Jean” by Michael Jackson: youtube.com/watch?v=Zi_XLOBDo_Y (I actually used the drum intro for the rap beat in #10)Clip #1 from Family Guy: youtube.com/watch?v=0oGMbAIcXCQ“What’s Wrong With - AC/DC”: youtube.com/watch?v=GazSe_KRrSUClip from South Park: youtube.com/watch?v=VvpK998H6KkNOT THE BEES: youtube.com/watch?v=EVCrmXW6-PkClip from Ed Edd n Eddy: youtube.com/watch?v=UAj2oPeEo-IClip #2 from Family Guy: youtube.com/watch?v=7R6_Chr2vroClip from the Simpsons: youtube.com/watch?v=Ek1zi9_x-Zo[Videos referenced]“RE: REPLY GIRLS” by Psychicpebbles: youtube.com/watch?v=FufxQKCgPL4“Bad Case of Big Mouth Promotion/Shout Out”: youtube.com/watch?v=p10tRR5djI8“A Discussion About Crowdfunding Part 2: The Importance of Transparency”: youtube.com/watch?v=H-Y9j0d4UIU“My Jared Dines/Rest, Repose VIP Questions”: youtube.com/watch?v=faEX8xL0jbo[Links to honorable mentions]Bad Case of Big Mouth: open.spotify.com/artist/0p4HmzIpWq8e3daRrFq8nHSic Vita: sicvita.bandcamp.comSaw Mill: sawmillband.bandcamp.comThe Astral Cadence: theastralcadence.bandcamp.comGeorge Orwell the Musical: georgeorwellthemusical.bandcamp.comWithout Warning: withoutwarningband.bandcamp.com[Timestamps]0:00 - Intro1:45 - Number 102:47 - Number 93:58 - Number 85:19 - Number 76:21 - Number 67:18 - Number 58:51 - Number 410:15 - Number 311:34 - Number 212:54 - Honorable Mentions15:08 - Number 117:04 - Outro ►My facebook: facebook.com/RanterInShadesOfficial ►The DiscordInShades: discord.gg/4h3bW8V
Whats Wrong With - Bon Jovi RanterInShades 2020-10-28 | ~Disclaimer: My sampling of outside media in this video constitutes as Fair Use under section 107 of the US Copyright Law, for the purpose of criticism and commentary, which thus invalidates my usage as copyright infringement.~ This What’s Wrong With covers one of the giants of 80’s rock and a band I’ve loved for many years, Bon Jovi. We talk about how they maintained relevance during a time when bands from the 80’s fell off the radar, their talent at writing big hooks and memorable ballads, and some swell personality traits of Jon Bon Jovi. And you get to see my first usage of some plugins I got for Final Cut!Also note that when I say just “Jovi”, that’s referring to the band as a whole, not just Jon.[Videos referenced]"My Top 15 Favorite Power Ballads”: youtube.com/watch?v=fUVS51sePRk“Top 10 Worst Songs of 2019”: youtube.com/watch?v=_Hwwaap_kCA“What’s Wrong With - Nickelback”: youtube.com/watch?v=iCXyQEFucmw“Word Analysis: The Word ‘Mainstream’”: youtube.com/watch?v=4iYZme8hL6M“1,000 Subscribers!!

I go into detail on everything I love about the instrumentation, songwriting, and production, and how much of a game changer the album was in the history of rock music.

Word Analysis: Ripoffs RanterInShades 2020-05-04 | ~Disclaimer: My sampling of outside media in this video constitutes as Fair Use under section 107 of the US Copyright Law, for the purpose of criticism and commentary, which thus invalidates my usage as copyright infringement.~Lots of things in media get called “ripoffs”. This video explains what I view as “ripping off”, and what I think gets mislabeled as being a ripoff, such as throwback bands, bands that have a distinct influence from another artist, and artists that have been taken to court for allegedly plagiarizing someone. I also talk about sampling and parody, and how they differentiate from eachother as well as how they differentiate from ripping something off.There’s also some subtle irony in the fact that I’ve been called a ripoff of both CoverKillerNation and Razorfist lol.[Songs sampled]“25 or 6 to 4” by Chicago: bit.ly/2Sut8Sb“Brain Stew” by Green Day: bit.ly/2SzuQlc“Baby I’m Yours” by Breakbot: bit.ly/2zY9hEx“As Long As I’ve Got You” by The Charmels: bit.ly/2yg06yR“Tribute” by Tenacious D: bit.ly/3b3t2XS“When the Curtain Falls” by Greta Van Fleet: bit.ly/2yqTT32“Get It On” by Kingdom Come: bit.ly/2ysfHv1“Still of the Night” by Whitesnake: bit.ly/3c52B5t“Immigrant Song” by Led Zeppelin: bit.ly/2SDk3qiColdplay/Satriani mashup: bit.ly/2z6tpUs“Joyful Noise” by Flame: bit.ly/2SAH7pp“Dark Horse” by Katy Perry: bit.ly/3b4effRYellowcard/Juice WRLD comparison: bit.ly/2W3R54V“Let’s Get It On” by Marvin Gaye: bit.ly/3fc1wLc“I’ll Sue Ya” by Weird Al Yankovic: bit.ly/2SvUmI0“Price Tag” by Jessie J: bit.ly/3dg6hlb[Videos referenced]IHE videos: bit.ly/2SutzvNbit.ly/3fn6ULQ“Did The Lion King RIPOFF Kimba the White Lion?” by Saberspark: bit.ly/2xwGUwb“I’m the Wrong Kind of Atheist?” by Armoured Skeptic: bit.ly/2YwEJE0“What’s Wrong With - Five Finger Death Punch”: bit.ly/2KWuHE3“WTFU - Just a Few Thoughts”: bit.ly/35v8DtF“Missing the Frickin’ Mark (response to Glenn Fricker)”: bit.ly/2W53wgZ“Acknowledge Your Influences!”: bit.ly/3dgfom2“Metal Elitists: Bashing a Band for Their Fans”: bit.ly/3flLQVG“Why I HATE the ‘Rock is Dead’ Argument”: bit.ly/2VZH74t“Shades’ Favorite Album Cover Extravaganza!”: bit.ly/35zfwKO“Top 10 Worst Songs of 2014”: bit.ly/2W2VKE5[Articles shown]BOTDF lyrics: bit.ly/3ffm2e9Otep lyrics: bit.ly/2ytwgXvFive Finger Death Punch Lyrics: bit.ly/35trmpLWhitesnake lyrics: bit.ly/3aWcnpm“Entertainment Law Mythbusters: Your Questions about Legally Sampling Music Answered”: bit.ly/3b4AUZeTruth about the deathbat: bit.ly/3b4AVfKSlippery Slope fallacy: bit.ly/2ypa1lu[Other clips sampled]Clip from Pajama Sam: bit.ly/2zY8mUCClip #1 from The Simpsons: bit.ly/2YzldHcClip #1 from The Lion King: bit.ly/2WnUBGoClip #2 from The Lion King: bit.ly/2ytwI89Clip from Super Mario World: bit.ly/2SBXTod“The YouTubers Complaining About Drama Rant (Exposing Matthew Santoro)” by GradeAUnderA: bit.ly/3aWd3LqMario Says No: bit.ly/2L12ufzClip from The Incredibles: bit.ly/2L07xwEI’m Rick James, bitch!: bit.ly/2KZiizj“What’s Wrong With - Avenged Sevenfold”: bit.ly/2L0GAsEClip #1 from South Park: bit.ly/2WoM2LfClip #2 from The Simpsons: bit.ly/2W3SCbbClip from Beauty and the Beast: bit.ly/3b3tlC5“My Top 20 Favorite Joe Satriani Songs”: bit.ly/3c8usC7Chromatic scale: bit.ly/3b7lC6dHA!

Reacting to the List of Demonetized Words RanterInShades 2020-04-17 | I know this topic might be old to some people, but after pondering the correlation between video performance and monetization status and how it might relate to how my videos perform given that my content isn't monetized, I decided to revisit the list of demonetized words. I mostly look at the confirmed words and the names & places list because the full list is long as fuck.The list: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/1/d/1ozg1Cnm6SdtM4M5rATkANAi07xAzYWaKL7HKxyvoHzk/htmlview#►My facebook: facebook.com/RanterInShadesOfficial►The DiscordInShades: discord.gg/4h3bW8V

Crybabies of Rock: Trapt In Your Headstrong Ways RanterInShades 2020-03-25 | ~Disclaimer: My sampling of outside media in this video constitutes as Fair Use under section 107 of the US Copyright Law, for the purpose of criticism and commentary, which thus invalidates my usage as copyright infringement.~ Chris Taylor Brown of Trapt is basically the right wing equivalent of Buddy Nielsen, and the spats he recently got into with people like Tilian Pearson of Dance Gavin Dance and Riley Gale of Power Trip among others pretty much prove that. This video isn’t so much discussing Chris’s political opinions as it is commenting on the terrible PR exhibited.[Articles about this]“Trapt Are On A Crazy Twitter Rampage Defending Trump’s Coronavirus Response And Not Even Richard Marx Is Safe”: stereogum.com/2077244/trapt-twitter-coronavirus-trump-richard-marx/news“The Rock + Metal World Has United To Destroy Trapt, A Dozen Bands Attack ‘Headstrong’ Singer”: loudwire.com/rock-metal-world-united-destroy-trapt“Power Trip Challenge Trapt To See Who Can Draw More Fans To Post-Pandemic Charity Show”: stereogum.com/2077472/power-trip-trapt-coronavirus-charity-show-challenge/news“Power Trip Challenging Trapt On Twitter Is The Online Entertainment The World Needs Right Now”: metalinjection.net/news/drama/power-trip-challenging-trapt-on-twitter-is-the-online-entertainment-the-world-needs-right-now?fbclid=IwAR2TvDkt3owM-DNrVuXf6jKHd1I9vV-N53WR0uJR1AXG6OFry2fgp2Wnj-ITrapt’s reaction to Loudwire: bit.ly/3bjY9PN[Other articles/posts shown]“Trapt’s Click Theft - ‘Headstrong’ Band Caught Red Handed”: metalinjection.net/around-the-interwebs/trapts-click-theft-headstrong-band-caught“Trapt, Dangerkids Beef Sparks: ‘Headstrong’ Makes More Money Yearly Than you’ve Made Your Whole Life”: http://www.altpress.com/news/entry/trapt_dangerkids_beef_sparks_headstrong_makes_more_money_yearly_than_youveTrapt ranting about Ilhan Omar: facebook.com/trapt/posts/i-want-to-give-a-shout-out-to-the-20-plus-venues-we-are-playing-through-november/10156966061068173“Nintendo Claims Ad Revenue On User-Generated YouTube Videos”: polygon.com/2013/5/16/4336114/nintendo-claims-ad-revenue-on-user-generated-youtube-videosMoving the Goalposts fallacy: yourlogicalfallacyis.com/special-pleading[Videos referenced]“Crybabies of Rock: I’m Not Your Buddy, Nielsen!”: youtube.com/watch?v=YmTHitMptNoChickenDoodleSauce’s (recently unprivated!) response to UTF on the Nintendo situation since he deleted his videos: youtube.com/watch?v=_MsoECcRaMwMusic I Like: youtu.be/eti5TrBTXkc“Metal Elitists: What is the Problem With Glam, Nu Metal & Core?”: youtube.com/watch?v=kfxCyTvHi_k“Death to False Metal Videos SUCK!!”: youtube.com/watch?v=akUZ-JG_BRw“Missing the Frickin’ Mark (response to Glenn Fricker)”: youtube.com/watch?v=b42ABI4TFOs“Buddy Nielsen’s Failed Sense: The Political Tirades Of A Liberal Dingus” by OfficialGATG: youtube.com/watch?v=m7Vd5OgRBpw[Clips sampled]"My Top 20 Favorite 'One Hit Wonder' Bands": youtube.com/watch?v=RYRo-R4cMc0Asian Jake Paul: youtube.com/watch?v=tQpKb0U800IMario Says No: youtube.com/watch?v=3SX3JnUhTaEClip from South Park: youtube.com/watch?v=lJjDovqciegClip from Toy Story: youtube.com/watch?v=b9JDPm_QHk4Clip from Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure: youtube.com/watch?v=ikxkIWMwf08Clip from Willy Wonka: youtube.com/watch?v=HaoySOGlZ_U“I’m Not Racist” by Joyner Lucas: youtube.com/watch?v=43gm3CJePn0Downward Spiral: youtube.com/watch?v=wT7gz2YNF4gClip from Drake & Josh: youtube.com/watch?v=gLLa_JvaEZk“Stand Up” by Trapt: youtube.com/watch?v=MfLFrT9Lfmo“Check Yo Self” by Ice Cube: youtube.com/watch?v=6sWbpDie0k0[Special thanks to (in order of appearance)]Chai Mocha as Richard Marx: youtube.com/channel/UCMqxjEl1R6zB3I2sdBz_WNgThrashMetalGuru as Evan Sather: http://www.youtube.com/user/ThrashMetalGuruMortified Productions as Kno: http://www.youtube.com/user/MoRtIfIeDPeNgUiN1992OfficialGATG as Tilian Pearson: http://www.youtube.com/user/OfficialGATGATG Productions as Ough!: youtube.com/channel/UCweRREMVjJPct3I5MGQVOKAAtticusTheDeathMetaller as Riley Gale: http://www.youtube.com/c/atticusthedeathmetaller#trapt #powertrip #headstrong ►My facebook: facebook.com/RanterInShadesOfficial
